Third Brake Light - Cayenne S – 2008

Recommended Posts

I’m new to Renntech…just joined yesterday!! Long time Porsche owner.I really like what I’m seeing!!I have a general question I’m hoping someone can help me with.I know I am not the most computer literate, but can’t find how to search the forums for a specific topic.I would appreciate any help!I also have a question on my Cayenne that has probably been discussed previously…but since I haven’t been able to figure out how to search the forums….well you see the problem.

My third brake light is not working.The other 2 are working fine.I removed the upper part of the rear spoiler to expose the LED light.I wanted to make sure I was getting current to the light before replacing the light so I removed the connector and put a voltmeter on the plug-in connector.I am not getting voltage.So I went to the manual to locate the fuse…and there is no reference to which fuse controls this light.I know very little about LED lights other than the fact that they draw very little current. Hopefully someone can help!!I have 2 questions;

1 – what fuse controls the third brake light?

2 - what is the correct way to test the connector to determine if I have current to the light?
